GAME DAY: Riders looking for 2nd straight win in Banjo Bowl
After losing nine games in a row to open the regular season, the Saskatchewan Roughriders hope to pick up their second win in a row against the Winnipeg Blue Bombers.
The Riders have traveled east to the Manitoba capital for the annual Banjo Bowl rematch at Investors Group Field.
After weeks of frustration and disappointment, the Riders finally got on the board last week with their first win of the season – a win that definitely lifted the spirits of many inside and outside of the locker room.
“(We) definitely got the monkey off our back. I just feel like we’re relaxed now and ready to go and ready to have fun,” said receiver Naaman Roosevelt.
